Abstract
The eighteen-item Attitudes Toward Mainstreaming Scale was cross-culturally validated by administration to New Zealand samples of inservice teachers, pre-service teachers, and education students (N = 421). Principal components analysis followed by varimax rotation yielded the same four factors found in the development sample. Internal consistency reliability estimates of factor-based subscales ranged from .71 to .88 with a total scale reliability of .91. Subscale intercorrelations ranged from .36 to .57. The relationship of subscales to age, sex, number of years in teaching, presence or absence of coursework and other experience in special education, and four attitude measures is also presented.
